Chapter 106 Mystery
"Who, who wants to take a shower with you? If you want to take a shower, you go first. I'll take a shower later." Chi Jinjin was about to go out.
Nan Xuqiu stopped her with one hand and closed the bathroom door with the other.
He slowly walked towards her.
Chi Jinjin hurriedly retreated, but retreated too quickly and leaned against the wall.
Nan Xuqiu supported her with one hand and said, "It's getting late. Let's wash together to save time."
"Save, save what time? I, I'm not in a hurry." Chi Jinjin said.
Nan Xuqiu pinched her chin with his index finger and thumb, lifted it slightly, and said, "I'm anxious."
As he said that, he kissed her lips.
Stumbling, Nan Xuqiu took her to the shower and reached out to turn on the shower head.
The warm water sprinkled down, gradually wetting Chi Jinjin's hair and clothes.
Nan Xuqiu pushed the wet hair back from her forehead and pushed her against the wall.
Chi Jinjin's whole body was soaked, and the clothes she wore were as thin as a cicada's wing, revealing the scenery inside.
Nan Xuqiu looked down.
Chi Jinjin quickly covered it up.
Nan Xuqiu grabbed her wrists and pressed her hands against the wall, saying with a hot smile, "Why are you blocking me? It's not like you haven't seen it before."
He lowered his eyes to look at her, like a little rabbit caught in the rain, weak and pitiful, making people want to bully her.
Nan Xuqiu's hand touched her face, slid down her profile to her neck, which was so slender that it could not be grasped.
He forced Chi Jinjin to raise her head and kissed her throat. He could feel her swallowing on his lips, and then slowly moved his kiss down.
His other hand wandered to her back and unzipped her dress.
In the almost airtight space, any sound was extremely noticeable. He took a step forward, and Chi Jinjin immediately gasped. The little sound that escaped was like a spark falling on the willow catkins in Nan Xuqiu's heart, burning it rapidly...
Chi Jinjin followed Nan Xuqiu to climb a mountain, a very tall and big mountain.
Chi Jinjin walked for a long time but hadn't finished yet. Her legs were sore and her whole body was weak and she had no strength at all.
But Nan Xuqiu still wanted to pull her along, walking fast and hurriedly.
Chi Jinjin gasped for breath and said, "Nan Xuqiu, can you please walk slower? My legs are sore and I can't stand anymore..."
"It's okay, I'll hold on." Nan Xuqiu also said breathlessly.
She felt that Nan Xuqiu was crazy and she was about to go crazy too.
She doesn't want to leave.
But he held my hand and I couldn't get it free no matter how hard I tried.
Chi Jinjin had no choice but to beg for mercy in a sobbing voice, crying, "Don't leave, I'm tired, let it go this time."
She was led by Nan Xuqiu and had walked to the top of one mountain after another.
Physical strength has been exhausted to the limit.
Nan Xuqiu picked her up, wiped the tears from her face, and said, "Why are you so crybaby?"
The little rabbit is really delicate. It doesn't take much effort, but it will cry if it is touched a little.
Chi Jinjin was exhausted. Nan Xuqiu carried her to the bed, and she fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
"good evening."
Nan Xuqiu bent down and kissed her forehead, smiling.
The next day, Nan Xuqiu left early again, but bought breakfast for Chi Jinjin and told her to eat before going to work.
Chi Jinjin took the time to renovate the garden and even invited Song Nuannuan to help with the design.
Looking at the garden that was almost completed, Chi Jinjin felt very happy thinking that Nan Xuqiu would be back soon and he would be able to see the new garden when he came back.
That day, Chi Jinjin was returning home from the supermarket and unfortunately encountered a traffic jam on the overpass.
The cars were like sausages on a string, and the honking of their horns was very noisy.
Chi Jinjin looked at her phone and turned to look out the window.
In my sight, a woman was standing quietly by the bridge, facing the river and looking forward.
Chi Jinjin lowered her head and looked at her phone again. More than half an hour had passed, but the car hadn't moved at all.
Chi Jinjin sighed and turned to look at the window.
But I saw the woman with one foot over the fence.
Chi Jinjin was suddenly shocked.
Suddenly I thought, oh no, she is going to jump off the bridge!
She didn't care about anything and just opened the car door and ran forward quickly. The moment the woman fell, she grabbed her hand.
Chi Jinjin held the railing tightly with his other hand, trying desperately to hold her back.
"Don't bother me..." the woman said weakly, with despair in her eyes.
"Miss, if there is anything, we can solve it slowly. Don't think too much about it!" Chi Jinjin said with gritted teeth.
The woman looked up at her, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. She smiled bitterly and said, "Miss, please let me go and let me die. This way I can be free..."
She reached out and pried open Chi Jinjin's fingers one by one.
Chi Jinjin shook her head, but couldn't let go of her other hand that was against the fence.
She could only shout, "Help, help!"
Only then did people react and came forward to help Chi Jinjin pull people out.
But at the moment they attacked together, the woman pried open Chi Jinjin's last finger.
"don't want!!"
Chi Jinjin let out a heart-wrenching scream and watched the woman fall.
When she fell, she didn't struggle at all, she was very calm, and even had a faint smile on her face.
In just a moment, she was swallowed up by the surging river and no one was seen.
Chi Jinjin suddenly collapsed to the ground, looking at the river surface in disbelief, where there was no one anymore.
People nearby quickly called the police.
Soon, a group of police officers and search and rescue teams gathered by the river.
Chi Jinjin went to the police station to take a statement. As soon as she came out of the interrogation room, Nan Xuqiu came running over.
Chi Jinjin was a little surprised. He should be back the day after tomorrow.
"Are you okay?" Nan Xuqiu looked her up and down. Fortunately, she was not injured, but there was a bright red railing mark on her palm.
"Nan Xuqiu..." Chi Jinjin's eyes were red, and she said with a sad heart, "I was trying to hold her back..."
She could have saved her.
Nan Xuqiu didn't say anything, but reached out and held her in his arms.
Chi Jinjin sobbed guiltily in Nan Xuqiu's arms.
Later, the search and rescue team spent two days and two nights fishing in the river before they finally pulled the person out of the water.
She was no longer breathing, her eyes were closed, and she looked as quiet as if she was asleep.
Nan Xuqiu obtained the woman's autopsy report, which stated that she had multiple bruises and scars on her body, all of which were caused by blunt objects, and that she had been beaten and abused before her death.
And she is already four months pregnant.
Through big data, Nan Xuqiu found out that the woman's name was Liu Shu, she was a nurse and worked at the First People's Hospital.
My original family is from the countryside, and now there is only one grandmother in my family who is over 70 years old.
The family is financially well off, lives in a school district house, and her husband is a university professor.
In the eyes of her colleagues, Liu Shu has always been an optimistic person. She doesn't have any unhappiness or worries in her daily life. She is well-received by patients and appreciated by leaders in the hospital, and her colleagues also like her very much.
After contacting the family, the first person to come was the deceased's mother, who came all the way from the countryside.
When he saw his daughter, he was speechless.
The wrinkled hand was trembling violently as it stroked Liu Shu's face.
There was disbelief written in his vicissitudes eyes.
Soon, her husband also rushed over.
"No, it's impossible..." Liu Shu's husband Xiang Qisong shook his head with an expression of disbelief.
He called his wife over and over again, and finally collapsed on the edge of the bed.
"How could this happen? How could this happen!"
Xiang Qisong burst into tears.
Then he said to Liu Shu's mother, "Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't take good care of Liu Liu. It's all my fault!"
The old lady helped him up from the ground and said, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you..."
"No, it's my fault. I knew Liu Liu had depression, but I still went to work. It's all my fault!" Xiang Qisong slapped himself a few times out of despair. He then held his wife's cold hand, crying bitterly with guilt and self-blame, saying, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have gone to work. I should have been with you. You were so miserable every day, but I... I didn't spend it with you. I'm such a bastard..."
The old lady wiped away the tears from her eyes and said to Xiang Qisong, "The dead cannot be resurrected. Let Shu'er rest in peace."
Xiang Qisong choked up and nodded slowly.
Nan Xuqiu went to investigate and found that what Xiang Qisong said was indeed true, Liu Shu was indeed suffering from depression.
But Nan Xuqiu discovered that she had been suffering from depression for several years.
It is not contracted during pregnancy.
Moreover, Liu Shu had no history of depression before. She only developed depression in the second year after her marriage to Xiang Qisong.
Nan Xuqiu stared at the file in a daze.
Shang Jingxuan came over while drinking coffee and said with a smile, "This case is almost closed, so why are you still holding on to it?"
Nan Xuqiu said, "I always feel that this matter is not that simple. There are still many mysteries that have not been solved."
"for example?"
Nan Xuqiu analyzed, "Why would such an inspiring and cheerful person suffer from depression? And how did she get those injuries?"
Depression doesn't come for no reason.
The injuries on your body don't appear for no reason.
"Perhaps these unsolved mysteries are the real truth hidden within," Nan Xuqiu said. He closed the file and said, "This case will not be closed for the time being."
"In the entire police station, you are the second most senior official now. You have the final say. We, the small fry, just have to obey your orders." Shang Jingxuan said with a smile.
Nan Xuqiu stood up, put the documents into his bag, and said, "Then this Crab General, please tidy up the room for me."
"Hey, you can't play like this!" Shang Jingxuan said.
Nan Xuqiu walked away with a smile, carrying his briefcase.
In the following days, Nan Xuqiu visited some of Liu Shu's circles and found that she was indeed a cheerful and lively person, enthusiastic and helpful.
Everyone around her praised her, and no one said anything bad about her.
The more this happened, the more suspicious Nan Xuqiu felt this matter was.
Could it be related to her husband?
However, Nan Xuqiu started to investigate and found that her husband was also a very good person in the eyes of others. He was polite, elegant, knowledgeable and well-educated. He was highly educated but friendly and never arrogant.
"Officer Nan, have a cup of tea."
Xiang Qisong handed Nan Xuqiu a cup of tea.
"Thank you." Nan Xuqiu took it and said, "I'm sorry to bother you."
"Of course you should. Officer Nan has taken the trouble to investigate my wife's case. As a family member and a citizen of our country, we should have obligations and responsibilities." Xiang Qisong said.
Nan Xuqiu looked around and saw that the walls were covered with fresh oil paintings.
"Are these all painted by your wife?" Nan Xuqiu asked.
Xiang Qisong nodded and said, "Yes, they were all painted by my wife."
"Your wife must have loved life when she was alive." Nan Xuqiu said
Xiang Qisong looked at the paintings on the wall and said, "Yes, I love life very much."
"Then why did she suffer from depression?" Nan Xuqiu asked again.
Xiang Qisong said the same thing as last time, "At first I thought it was because of the pregnancy, but these days I've been thinking about it day and night, and suddenly I realized that she seemed to have started suffering from depression after marrying me."
"How is your relationship as husband and wife?" Nan Xuqiu asked.
Xiang Qisong replied, "Very good. Although we sometimes have small arguments, we always love each other deeply."
He sighed, lowered his head, and said in a heavy tone, "I really didn't expect depression to be so terrible that it could directly take a person's life. I should have spent more time with her, but I didn't expect her to commit suicide. She has always been a very strong and optimistic person. How could she suffer from this disease..."
"Then do you feel that since when has she become a little different?" Nan Xuqiu asked.
Xiang Qisong shook his head, but then he paused, as if remembering something, and said, "My wife used to work in the pediatric department, but after we got married, she was transferred to the nephrology department. It seems that since then, she has become less fond of smiling. Every time I ask her what's wrong, she doesn't explain and just says she's too tired. Also, the director of her department often texts and calls her, but every time she answers the phone, she leaves, saying she has to work overtime..."
"director?"
Nan Xuqiu took note of this incident.
Later, he began to investigate the director mentioned by Xiang Qisong. He didn't know what he was talking about until he found out that this person was lustful and often molested the young female nurses in the department and took advantage of the female patients while he was seeing them.
Liu Shu was often harassed by him and always wanted to be transferred.
So it was because of him that Liu Shu suffered from depression and eventually committed suicide.
After Xiang Qisong learned about this, he angrily rushed into the hospital and made a big fuss.
In the end, the director was fired from the hospital.
This case is finally concluded.
Nan Xuqiu told Chi Jinjin what had happened.
Chi Jinjin was indignant after hearing this and said, "A young mother in her twenties was driven to suicide by jumping into the river by him, yet he was only fired. Think about it, it's too light a punishment."
Nan Xuqiu sighed. He also felt that he had let the man down a bit, but there was nothing he could do about it.
A week later, Chi Jinjin and Nan Xuqiu went for a walk and happened to meet Xiang Qisong and his colleagues.
Seeing Nan Xuqiu, Xiang Qisong walked up to him and kept thanking him.
Later, he left with his colleagues.
As soon as they left, Nan Xuqiu's phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Shang Jingxuan.
[Team Nan, I just accompanied Old Xu to the hospital to see his son. A pediatric nurse said Liu Shu has a severe allergy to oil pens.]
Nan Xuqiu stopped in his tracks suddenly.
